Discover wine’s possibilities

“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.”

Helen Keller

There’s always something to be said about the sweet and joyous anticipation of tomorrow; that toe curling giddiness between the sheets, eyes squeezed shut, hoping sleep will speed the dawn. Tomorrow will be better, tomorrow will be fun, tomorrow we will try again.

What if we learned better how to live today? What if the joy of our little every day passions knit the stitches of life into a tapestry whole? Passion, enjoyment, stolen moments of ‘just because I can’ give life its flavour, all you must do is develop your palate.

Thibaud Boudignon

Rosé de Loire

Thibaud Boudignon farms organic fruit on schist and volcanic soils near Anjou, crafting quietly precise wines with Loire identity.

Serve with light salads like barbecued little gem with cucumber and white beans, pasta dishes, shellfish, and grilled fish. Or a cheeky hot dog.

Expect elegant saline and light rosé perfect for warm evenings in the park (or as something more serious to impress the in-laws).
